Brian Tyler & John Carey Return to the ESCAPE ROOM with TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS – Soundtrack Released Today
Sony Music Masterworks’ has released the official soundtrack for ESCAPE ROOM: TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS features original music by composers Brian Tyler (F9, AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON, YELLOWSTONE and the previous ESCAPE ROOM) and John Carey (an associate of Tyler’s who arranged TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES, THE MUMMY and others, and co-scored the original ESCAPE ROOM) from Adam Robitel‘s follow-up to his hit 2019 thriller. Of the soundtrack, Tyler says, quoted in a preview article at RueMorgue.com: “Composing the score for Escape Room: Tournament of Champions was an incredible experience and a chance to create both an emotional musical experience as well as a dark and sonically rich soundscape. The score is composed from the perspective of classic thematic writing yet is embodied by industrial electronic music. The contrast of tones between emotional motifs and the stark sonic landscape of pure electronic music was one of the most interesting musical combinations I have ever endeavored to create. I was so pleased to work with the incredibly talented director Adam Robitel on this sequel as well as collaborating with the amazing John Carey. The film was a true joy to work on, and I cannot wait for people to see the film and hear the soundtrack!”
